Your second link points to:

> Prahlad Jani (Gujarati: પ્રહલાદ જાની), also known as "Mataji", (born Chunriwala Mataji, 13 August 1929) is an Indian breatharian sadhu who claims to have lived without food and water since 1940

Since 1940? This link just substracts credibility from your initial post.

It's going to take more than some news article and some heavily criticized studies to establish such an improbable claim.

Watch this documentary and see what people say. Hey HN folks, Sometimes science does not explain everything.

These people still exhale CO2 and water vapor. Unless you believe that matter spontaneously appears inside their bodies they have to lose weight.

No, only the things which can be explained.
